Congratulations to Caroline Terry, winner of the highly prestigious 2023 Sloan Research Fellowship. The fellowships, awarded annually since 1955, honor extraordinary U.S. and Canadian researchers whose creativity, innovation, and research accomplishments make them stand out as the next generation of leaders.
Caroline Terry is an Assistant Professor in the Mathematics Department at the Ohio State University. Caroline Terry's research is in model theory and finite combinatorics. She received her Ph.D. at the University of Illinois at Chicago in 2016 under the supervision of Dave Marker and Dhruv Mubayi. Her work has been published in leading peer-reviewed journals, including the Journal of Symbolic Logic and the Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society.
Winning a Sloan Research Fellowship is one of the most prestigious awards available to young researchers, in part because so many past Fellows have gone on to become towering figures in science. Renowned physicists Richard Feynman and Murray Gell-Mann were Sloan Research Fellows, as was mathematician John Nash, one of the fathers of modern game theory. 56 Fellows have received a Nobel Prize in their respective field, 17 have won the Fields Medal in mathematics, and 22 have won the John Bates Clark Medal in economics, including every winner since 2007.
"Sloan Research Fellows are shining examples of innovative and impactful research,” says Adam F. Falk, president of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. “We are thrilled to support their groundbreaking work and we look forward to following their continued success."
Nominations for the 2024 Sloan Research Fellowships will open on Saturday, July 15, 2023. For more information about the Sloan Research Fellowship Program and to see the full list of 2023 Fellows, visit https://sloan.org/fellowships/2023-Fellows.
